[He offers her the water and the pills, trying to meet her eyes in spite of her pulling her hood down.]
[ Poor Hinata. He's just trying to help... and she appreciates it, which is why she takes the pills and water and downs them both without complaint. ] Jake's hope powers are the only thing sustainin' me right now, Hinata.

He sighs again, more quietly, and takes a seat on the bed beside her, closing his eyes.]
No matter what, I'm here for you. I've lost too many friends already.
